Seismology on Venus with infrasound observations from balloon and orbit
The study of Venus’ interior properties can be investigated by performing seismic studies. However, seismology on Venus’ surface is prevented by high temperature and pressure. We present two complementary techniques for performing seismology on Venus from balloons and orbiters, which can circumvent the use of high temperature electronics.
